On Tuesday, February 10, 2015, a Dodge County citizen was awarded a check for $4,000.00 for a tip that he turned into the arson hotline. The tip was in reference to a structure fire in Dodge County in 2012 that helped lead to an arrest and conviction of the arsonist. Accepting the check on behalf of the anonymous tipster was Dodge County Sheriff Lynn Sheffield. Pictured (l-r) William Bishop with Georgia Arson Control, Inc., M.
